Use RadGrid CssClass elements ourside of grid?

[Michael]

To help maintain a consistent look, I would like to use some of the built in skin CssClass elements ourside of the grid.  For example, on one panel I have a header table row.  I would like it to use the same formatting of the desired built in skin for the RadGrid "HeaderStyle" element.  I am currently using the built in Vista skin.

I tried to set the CssClass attribute of the table row to "HeaderStyle", but it came up non-formatted... my guess is that I need to reference the css file for the Vista skin somehow, but wasn't sure how since it is built in.

Is this possible and can you provide the details to make this work?

Thanks!

Hi Michael,

If you don't have the RadGrid Vista skin registered on a web page (i.e. you don't have Vista RadGrids in it), you have to register it manually. You can obtain the URL to the embedded CSS file like this:

C#

Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(typeof(RadGrid), "Telerik.Web.UI.Skins.Vista.Grid.Vista.css");

After the skin is registered, you only need to add the correct CSS classes to your HTML elements. However, please read the following relevant forum thread and especially my post:
